We are still waiting to hear back from law schools. We should be getting letters any day now and it is becoming very stressful and frustrating. I almost dread checking the mail and yet can't wait till it comes each day. It's very disappointing when there is nothing in it. Our future depends on these letters. Until they come in, we won't know where we will be living in just a few short months. Law school is already stressful and Jeff hasn't even started yet.

On an unrelated note: One thing I really disliked about our old apartment is that we had ants in the kitchen and the bathroom. Now that it is starting to warm up, I have found ants in our new apartments bathroom. To make it even worse, one bit me today. Now I worry that one is going to crawl into my babies towels and bite them when I'm drying them off. It's war. Only last fall when I went to find ant pesticide for inside the house I couldn't find any. Hopefully I'll have better luck this time.

Children

Sometimes I wonder what I was thinking when I decided to become a mom. Usually when Nadia is standing there screaming at me, or when Finn thinks that it is okay to be up from 12:00 to 3:00 a.m. Then Nadia does something sweet and cute or Finn is just sleeping peacfully. Like a moment ago, Nadia just climbed up on the couch and gave me a hug and a kiss. How can you not love being a mom at those moments?

So the layout I chose is kind of girly, but as Jeff never posts anything on this blog that he started he'll just have to deal with it. Not that he'll care, he doesn't even look at the blog unless I tell him to.

We woke up to snow this morning. It had been so nice. Almost all the snow had melted out of our apartments parking lot and it was getting warm (at least it felt warm to me). Now snow is back. Hopefully it will melt soon. If it gets warm enough I can take the kids out for a walk.

Not much is going on here. I spend most of my time trying to keep up on the housework. Which, by the way, doesn't work. Nadia spends most of her time undoing what I've just finished. It's amazing what she can get into. I'll think I have everything out of her reach and she'll prove me wrong.

Thanks Ola

Thanks to Ola for showing me where to get the template.

Beauty Salon

Today, Jeff decided that it was time for a change in the hair department. So he had me go out and buy some bleach. What you're about to see is the results of letting your wife (who has no training whatsoever) bleach your hair.

During:

After:

Really After: After bleaching is hair we decided to cut it as well.

Since then we have touched up places where I dindn't get the bleach and so had remained brown. It is improved some, but there are still some places that were missed (down at the roots), but all in all it looks pretty good, if quite yellow. Anyway, I kind of like it.
